… Yeah, Israel, they don't even want to go to war with Iran no more. I don't know if you've seen their statement. They're like, "US? You got this." They're like Donald Trump. It's on you. You got this, bro. So you have Morandi, who designs deranged psychopaths online. I don't know if you've seen it as well, where they, they send death threats to him all the time.

The Jimmy Dore Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. A March 2026 post reports a $1M bounty on Professor Mohammad Marandi, posted by a paid X partner, flagged as a death threat and described as 'still live'.[1]
Supports. EDMO reports in May 2026 that a crowdfunded one-million-dollar bounty for the capture of Mohammad Marandi was promoted via the X account 'Terror Alarm' as a paid advertisement.[2]
Supports. Al Mayadeen's April 2026 statement refers to financial bounties offered for Marandi, and a joint statement from April 2026 condemns a bounty listing against him.[3][4]
Supports. Marandi himself, in a November 2026 interview, refers to death threats on social media against him and other Iranian figures, which is consistent with a continuing threat environment.[5]
Context. The sources are mostly unrated or low-credibility outlets and advocacy posts rather than wire services or fact-checkers, so the evidence is directional rather than authoritatively settled.[1][2][3][4]
